Setup and Size

Pros:

  • "It was fairly easy to set up even the instructions were in Spanish Only."
  • "Set up was easy and took no more than 10 mins for inexperienced campers."
  • "This thing was easy to put up and pack up again."
  • "Pretty easy to put up even in the dark."
  • "Easy and quick to assemble, but no instructions on how to use guylines."
  • "It's very easy to set up for just 1 able bodied adult."
  • "The set up was super easy, no need to even look at the directions."

Cons:

  • "There is only one door and you can't lie facing the door as not long enough."
  • "However it's small for the 4 person version. 2 adults in sleeping bags and a small child and this tent was packed."
  • "While this tent is easy to set up and sturdy it is NOT made for 2 adults."
  • "This tent is TINY. It's closer to a Solo tent than a 2 person tent."
  • "Tent is not a 4-person tent as advertised. It only fits two cots comfortably."
  • "The 4p tent is pretty big- plenty of room for queen mattress + space to move around in and store gear."
  • "This tent is probably too small for 4."

Weather Resistance

Pros:

  • "Bone dry in thunder storm next to Gila river New Mexico."
  • "Inside stayed dry."
  • "The tent kept dry inside."
  • "They did not leak at all when it rained, and it rained a lot."
  • "Not a single drop of water got it, despite the 2 inch flood outside."
  • "Everything was dry!"
  • "The tent stayed perfectly dry inside and no condensation at all."

Cons:

  • "Had some water in one of the corners where the tarp floor meets the tent material."
  • "Only reason for 4 stars is some water got in where the stitching joins the tent material and the thicker tarp like material on the bottom."
  • "It’s a fiasco to do the poles you have to put both in then start going round robin till all latch in."
  • "The rainfly covers very little, so is ineffective in a wind-driven rain."
  • "The problem comes from the condensation on this tent is terrible and during a rain storm the corner leaked and part of the door."
  • "This tent worked for us the one time as it didn’t rain at all but if it rains… it will leak through everywhere!"
  • "The rain fly doesn’t reach the bottom of the windows so you can have a peep hole or breeze or water come in."

Quality and Durability

Pros:

  • "Great quality tent. We got 2."
  • "This is a fantastic tent, as expected from Coleman, very high quality and lives up to the name."
  • "For over 20 years I have been buying Coleman products and they continue to be very well made and reliable."
  • "The Coleman tent has proven to be an outstanding choice for any nature enthusiast."
  • "Zippers are sturdy. Never had a leak and takes the wind like a champ."
  • "The sundome tents are the most waterproof tents in the Coleman line."
  • "Very durable (been through 2 storms already). No leakage at all."

Cons:

  • "As I was setting up my tent I was installing the tent pole rods across the overhead inserts and it somehow cause a small rip."
  • "The elastic in the poles broke the 2nd time we used the tent."
  • "The only issue I have is they don't sell replacement poles for their tents."
  • "The tent lifted off the ground because the stakes did not hold it down, we now have tears in the rain fly and tent which makes us upset."
  • "The tent kept caving in over and over and eventually collapsed on us."
  • "One of the tent support poles broke."
  • "I bought this tent for a scout event with my daughter. When I took the tent out of the package to set it up it already had the dome ropes tied to it and it was brown as if it had already been outside."
